Thanks Gabor and Duncan, that seems to be the issue.

I have a package in which I thought would be helpful to have a
configure.win file.  However, when compiling (locally as well as
through win-builder) I get the following message:

"Warning: this package has a non-empty 'configure.win' file, so
building only the main architecture"

And then win builder CRAN check fails with an error.  When I take out
the configure.win file everything works (the configure.win file just
had an echo statement in it for testing).

I don't understand why i386 compilation does not proceed with the
configure file?  What is the issue or mistake I'm making?

It sounds as though you (and WinBuilder) are skipping the
"--force-biarch" command line option in "R CMD install".

I suspect the reason it isn't the default is that it's hard to get right
for both architectures.  I don't know how you would ask WinBuilder to
use it for you.


To answer the final part of my answer: you put "Biarch: yes" in the DESCRIPTION file. See the "foreign" package for example.
